General Description
The HMC426MS8 is a low noise Divide-by-4
Static Divider utilizing SiGe technology in an 8
lead surface mount plastic package. This device
operates from DC (with a square wave input) to
4.0 GHz input frequency while operating from a
single +3V supply at only 13 mA. The low addi-
tive SSB phase noise of -146 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz
offset helps the user maintain excellent system
noise performance.
